Multiple cities in Thailand have created a distinct Indian link, demonstrating Bollywood`s global influence, as nightclubs around the country embrace the vivid Indian songs

Thailand is considered to be not very expensive

With warm hospitality, crowded streets and Indian music, many parts of Thailand make Indians not far away from their home. The country is considered to be not very expensive when it comes to vacations. But, not just the music, the Thai greeting known as the 'wai' is a short bow with hands clasped together in a prayer-like posture. It originates from the Indian Anjali Mudra, similar to the Indian greeting 'namaste'. The wai gesture originated in Buddhism and has similar origins as namaste in Hinduism.

Multiple cities in Thailand have created a distinct Indian link, demonstrating Bollywood's global influence, as nightclubs around the country embrace the vivid Indian songs. These clubs, which are attracting an increasing number of Indian visitors and expatriates, have become cultural fusion hotspots, with Bollywood melodies resonating in the heart of Thai nightlife.
